Chapter 350 Farewell
Although he knew that Wang Guilan and Zhang Zhaodi would definitely distribute some gifts to the Wang family, Meng Tao asked Shen Yu to give Captain Wang another cloth bag, which contained a cigarette, a pack of tea, two bottles of wine and some sugar cakes.

Captain Wang couldn't refuse, so he accepted it. He turned around and told his daughter-in-law Zhu Chunhong to go home quickly, and asked the old woman to bring the two cloth bags packed yesterday.

Wang Guilan and Zhang Zhaodi also took out packed souvenirs, such as soybeans, vermicelli, red dates, pine nuts, hazelnuts and pecans, etc. They had prepared them in advance since they knew Mengtao was coming.

Meng Tao was also polite, thanked his uncle and aunt, and happily accepted it.

These local specialties are very good, not only she likes to eat, but most people like to eat. Meng Tao thinks that after two years, the policy will be relaxed, so she can buy a lot here and sell them to the south.

When everyone was saying goodbye and explaining some things to each other, there was a lot of noise outside the courtyard. Meng Tao saw Wang Guilan say a few words to Zhu Chunxing and Zhu Chunhong, and then the two sisters led their sons-in-law out. After a while, the noise stopped. up.

When they came back, Zhu Chunhong told Meng Tao: It was Zhu Chunzhi and her mother-in-law. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law brought some things and insisted on giving them to relatives in person. They also came with Wang Aixiang's mother and daughter. She went to fight to get married.

As a result, these people were chased away by Chun Xing and Chun Hong, who had a verbal fight and a broom.

It was not so easy to drive away Wang Aixiang's mother and daughter. Both of them had the audacity to come and make trouble. They must have been fully prepared to play tricks to the end. Chun Xing, who was usually honest and docile, had an idea at this time, and lied to them saying: Chunlin is not at all. Not in this house, he went to the small courtyard at the corner of the mountain to pack his things, and later he will follow his relatives into the city.

When Wang Aixiang heard that Chunlin was going to enter the city soon, her complexion changed immediately. Thinking of the rumors in the village that Zhu Chunlin would definitely become a worker and eat public food this time, Wang Aixiang was so anxious that her eyes turned red, and her mother hurriedly pulled her away. , the mother and daughter immediately turned around and rushed to the small courtyard at the corner of the mountain to find Zhu Chunlin.

With Chunzhi's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left, Chunxing and Chunhong are easy to deal with. Chunhong is in charge of the quarrel, and Chunxing goes straight to the broom. Anyway, according to Wang Guilan's wishes, they are determined not to allow their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to enter Zhu's house.

Meng Tao thinks about that scene is also funny, it can make Wang Guilan hate it to such an extent, it seems that she was really hurt by Zhu Chunzhi and her mother-in-law's family, and the hurt was not serious.

But Chunxing didn't completely lie to Wang Aixiang. Zhu Chunlin was indeed going to leave Heilingzi Village and go to work in the city, but not today.

Now Zhu Chunlin is not in the small courtyard at the corner of the mountain. He has gone to other villages to find his senior brothers and asked them to come over and help them break the furniture.

It was Meng Tao's suggestion to let Zhu Chunlin enter the city.

Meng Tao saw Zhu Chunlin's carpentry work, especially those hollow carvings, with exquisite and meticulous traditional techniques, and felt that Zhu Chunlin was a very talented and clever little carpenter. If he was given more time to study and hone his skills, he would be able to achieve more Great progress, and will have a deeper and broader development space in the future.

Not to mention other things, a few years later, antique furniture became all the rage, and Zhu Chunlin seized this opportunity to gain both fame and fortune.

Meng Tao talked to Shen Yu and Meng Zhehan, and they both agreed. Shen Yu said that Zhu Chunlin could first be arranged to enter the state-owned woodware factory in Z City, and stay in the woodware factory for a period of time before going to the capital city, where elites from all walks of life gathered, so that Zhu Chunlin could study further. After a few years, you will be at the master level.

Shen Yu asked Zhu Manjin and Zhu Chunlin for their opinions. When Zhu Manjin and his wife heard that they could arrange for their son to work in the woodwork factory in the city, not only could he receive a salary, but he could also learn techniques from the masters in the factory. Of course he was willing, and Zhu Chunlin was even more excited.

Also excited are Zhu Chunhe and Zhu Chunyan.

Zhu Chunhe signed up for the army. He passed all the physical examinations but was not selected. He was very depressed these days. After Meng Zhehan found out, he said he would solve this problem for him later. Chunhe thought that Brother Meng was comforting him, and waited for him to confirm it was true , almost died of joy;
Zhu Chunyan also worked as a farmer at home for two years after graduating from junior high school. Seeing that Chunhe could enlist in the army, she had to go to life and death. Meng Zhehan saw that she was nearly 1.7 meters tall, with a strong physique and a straightforward personality. He assessed her a few questions and asked Zhu Manyin and Zhang Zhaodi, Zhu Manyin and his wife agreed a hundred times. Meng Zhehan nodded in agreement. Zhu Chunyan jumped three feet high and smiled from ear to ear. The other brothers and sisters were envious, but unfortunately they were either older or younger and did not meet the regulations.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the farewell between the host and the guest was finally over, and the two jeeps drove away from Heilingzi Village in the light rain.

Meng Tao and his party planned to take a detour to Hongsong Commune and return to the provincial capital by another route.

The three brothers and sisters Zhu Chunlin had to wait for a few days. After Shen Yu and Meng Zhehan returned, they would naturally be notified, and then the brothers and sisters would just act according to the regulations.

There are several narrow mountain roads in the direction of Hongsong Commune. It was raining and slippery. Liu Jianli and Xu Yuting did not dare to run too fast. The stones fell on the road, and I walked slowly. It was after [-] o'clock in the evening, and it was dark before I walked to the outskirts of Hongsong Commune.

Hongsong Commune used to be called Hongsong Town, which is nearly a hundred miles away from Heilingzi Village and belongs to another county.

The car drove down from the half-mountain road, and Meng Tao was a little surprised to see the large area of ​​lights at the foot of the mountain: she had heard Liu Yongsheng's narration, and later heard grandma Liu, grandma Xu, and the brothers Liu and Xu's occasional descriptions. I feel that Hongsong Town is a place two or three times larger than Yanchong Commune Street Market. Now seeing this large area of ​​lights, it is almost equivalent to the size of a small county town in this era.

Thinking about it, it's no wonder that there used to be state-owned enterprises such as quilt factories, food factories, and timber factories in this town. There are farms, forest farms, and a railway station nearby... 20 years have passed, and it will only be built better.

Meng Taohua lived in this place for more than a year, while Liu Jianli and Xu Yuting were born and raised here, and they left just before going to elementary school. Unfamiliar, but more happy with the big changes in the town.

As the saying goes, looking at the mountains and walking dead horses, you can see the sea of ​​lights in front of you on the half-mountain road, but they are gone when you go down to the foot of the mountain. It is estimated that you have to walk for a while to get there.

The gravel road is submerged in the deep forest covered by thick shade, and the place where the headlights shine is full of trees. This should be a forest area.

Due to the bad road conditions, Meng Tao was worried that he would not feel well, so Meng Zhehan drove the car, and Shen Yu sat in the back seat, letting his little wife cuddle up to him.

Meng Tao looked at the dark dense forest under the headlights, and suddenly remembered the black blind man blocking the way that Director Wu said, so he said to Shen Yu: "It would be great if a black bear jumped out now, my son wants to eat bear's paw."

Shen Yu rubbed his wife's head: "He doesn't even have teeth, obviously you want to eat them."

Meng Tao: "..."

This straight man of steel is really boring, so why can't we just keep chatting with him?

Meng Zhehan concentrated on looking at the road ahead, while being amused by the conversation between the couple, at this moment he suddenly heard two "bang bang" sounds coming from the front, sharp and piercing, Meng Zhehan looked serious, and subconsciously stepped on the brakes.
